The Grounds For Transformation
Your journey unfolds across 36 acres of nature and woodland. A living space of quietude designed not as an escape, but as a connection to ‘self’. Here, in your personal cottage, the work of seeing yourself clearly is held by the deep stillness of the surrounding nature.
Mornings are met with natural light and the gentle pace of the land. The space between insights is filled with the soft rustle of leaves, not the noise of the world. Your contemplation finds its rhythm alongside the unhurried turn of the seasons outside your window. The work done here is deep, nurturing, and meaningful.
Please find a video below that provides more detail on the Retreat and its origins.

NESTLED WITHIN 36 ACRES OF LAND
-
The Renaissance Sanctuary is a private journey into self-discovery, healing, and enlightenment.
Here, growth unfolds naturally through conversation, connection, and reflection. This space is held in an environment that feels more like staying with an old friend than attending a retreat. Together, we explore how anxiety dominates your life: your past, your patterns, Your Mind and the protective layers your mind has built to keep you safe.
As these layers gently unravel with the support of a trained coach, clarity emerges. You begin to see how inherited beliefs, values, trauma, and conditioning have shaped who you are. The question is, how do you release something that no longer serves you?
This is a process of remembering and rebuilding. You arrive with the memories and baggage from the past, but you leave without the weight they once held. Returning to your most authentic self with awareness, intention, and peace.
Days flow organically: mindful walks, soulful meals, and guided frameworks that help you understand the mind, connect to the heart, and awaken the higher self within.
The Renaissance Sanctuary is not a spa, a class, or therapy. It is a rebirth of perspective that is congruent with your life, allowing you to fully understand how anxiety truely works but giving you all the tools for the future.

While our administrative office is located in New York City, the heart of the Renaissance Sanctuary retreat resides in a serene, historic location on the east coast of Pennsylvania, just outside of Media, PA.
To preserve the Sanctuary’s exclusivity, privacy, and security, we do not disclose its exact location on our website. Discretion is an integral part of what makes the Renaissance Sanctuary so unique. We are deeply committed to providing our guests with unprecedented privacy in a secure, intimate environment where true transformation can occur.
The first step is to complete a contact form that shows your interest. Once we receive your inquiry, we will arrange a time for a private conversation to determine if Renaissance Sanctuary is the right fit for you. Prior to this conversation, you will receive a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) to ensure absolute confidentiality.

The Renaissance Sanctuary specailizes in residential coaching and transformation.
All-inclusive residential stays start from $3,500 with virtual coaching starting at $150p\h
Each retreat includes six hours of Zoom sessions before you arrive, followed by a chosen number of aftercare hours.
Please submit an application form, and we can start to build your very own bespoke residential package.
This can be paid for via debit, credit or interest-free payments over time. This includes all three parts of help and support (before, during, and after). Your aftercare is included in the price, and this covers all food and accommodation, too. The only thing you need to worry about is transportation.

Each guest gets to stay in their own Cottage. We’ve made every effort to preserve its natural charm while incorporating subtle modern comforts designed to make your stay both restful and memorable, without compromising its historical soul.
When you arrive here, the cottage is entirely yours. There will be no other guests on the property, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the peace and serenity. This retreat has been designed for individuals seeking to change their lives once and for all. The cottage offers your own private living space, accommodation, and every facility you need to recharge whilst working on yourself.
The landscape surrounding you is as much a part of the experience as the cottage itself. You’ll find yourself immersed in the natural world: deer grazing at the edge of the woods, squirrels darting between branches, and the magical glow of fireflies in the summer. The cottage is a living story, and its history makes your stay all the more special.
Renaissance Sanctuary invites you to step into a world where time slows down, history and nature meet, and you can find solace in the beauty of this extraordinary place.
-
From our very first consultation to the moment you leave the Sanctuary, support begins immediately and continues long after your stay. Even during the time between our initial contact and your first Zoom session, sometimes two months or more, you’ll have full access to support. Whether it’s quick check-ins or questions in between calls, we are here for you every step of the way.
Once you’re signed up, you can have peace of mind knowing that our full support is available not just during your stay, but also after. The cost of your retreat includes aftercare, ensuring that you continue to receive guidance and encouragement through Zoom sessions, voice messages, and check-ins. Whether you choose 3, 6, or 12 months of aftercare, we’re with you as you integrate your transformation and move forward with confidence.

When we bought the new property here in PA, we knew we wanted something different and something more gentle, mindful, and harmonious with nature. Here, the experience is intentionally slower, with space to breathe, reflect, and connect.
Our program runs from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., leaving your evenings free to do as you wish. You may choose to take a quiet walk among the trees, sit beneath a blanket of stars, or simply unwind in the comfort of your own private, historic cottage. Mornings are yours as well. You can wake with the sun and stretch into the day with yoga, explore the fields, or savour a peaceful breakfast outdoors. The pace is relaxed yet purposeful, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the Sanctuary’s beauty while also honouring the work you’ve come to do.
Naturally, The Sanctuary works with the Seasons. Therefore, the backdrop will change accordingly. Some pictures on this website may show beautiful meadows and lush grass, while winter pictures may show barren trees and colder days.
Throughout the seven-day retreat, we’ve built in two vital rest days, giving you the time and space to process the deep thoughts, feelings, and emotions that rise to the surface. These pauses are essential to nurturing your soul and integrating the skills you’ve learned during the active days. After four days of insightful work, you’ll have a break to truly unwind, meditate, and reflect on the journey so far. We’ll then pick up on days five and six to revisit your findings, solidify systems for moving forward, and ensure you’re equipped with the tools and support you need for the next chapter of your life.
Your final day is a day of rest, a gift to yourself to fully relax, embrace the serenity of the sanctuary, and prepare to re-enter your daily life with a renewed sense of peace and purpose.
At Renaissance Sanctuary, downtime isn’t just about resting the body; it’s about nurturing the soul. In the quiet moments, we find the most profound clarity and healing. If you’re ready to reconnect with yourself, to find balance, and to rediscover what truly matters, this is your opportunity. Come as you are, and allow the Sanctuary to guide you toward the beauty of becoming whole again.

Renaissance Sanctuary is a place dedicated to personal transformation and spiritual growth. It is a serene, historical retreat designed to help individuals heal, reflect, and evolve. However, as with any property that has a rich history, there are inherent risks associated with its age and terrain. The property is over 300 years old, and as such, the grounds include uneven surfaces, branches, and natural features that can present challenges. The cottages and structures on the property, while full of charm, include elements such as wonky stairs, aged floors, and other features that reflect the sanctuary’s historical nature. It is with great sadness to say that due to the age of the property we are not wheelchair accessable and some areas could provide traoublsome for those who are suffer from a disability.
Additionally, guests will be using kitchen facilities to prepare meals, which may involve the use of sharp objects and other tools.
By attending the Renaissance Sanctuary, you acknowledge and accept that accidents may occur, despite our utmost care and attention to safety. As part of our commitment to maintaining a safe and supportive environment, we require all guests to sign a waiver upon booking. This waiver confirms that you, your family, friends or acquaintances, will not hold the Renaissance Sanctuary liable for any injuries, accidents incidents or grievances that may occur, during the retreat, or in connection with The Renaissance Sanctuary.
This waiver is necessary due to the litigious culture prevalent in the United States, and while we are committed to providing a safe and transformative space, we cannot assume responsibility for any harm that may occur. Our focus is on supporting your mental health and personal growth, and we trust that you understand the importance of taking personal responsibility during your stay.
By signing the waiver, you are agreeing to release Renaissance Sanctuary, its owners, and its staff from any claims or liabilities arising from your participation in the retreat. This is done in the spirit of ensuring a safe, focused, and meaningful experience for all who come to the Sanctuary.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation, as this is a necessary step to maintain the safety, integrity, and tranquility of the Renaissance Sanctuary.
